Keyport Borough is replacing the existing 30+ year old timber pier which was recently deemed structurally unsound. This pier is located on American Legion Drive, and extends into the Raritan Bay. Existing land use includes a bulkhead and waterfront walkway along the Raritan Bayshore, offering access to the pier, which is currently restricted. The new pier improves physical public access to the bay and provide multiple recreation purposes, including boating and fishing.
